take off your tire and find the indention from where it is knocking...drill a hole through it. now open your hood and take a 2.5" circle cutter (dont know what they are called) and cut a hole with the small hole you just drilled as the center. voila. do be careful not to cut through your wire harness

i personally dont you should be worried about rigidity..i dont claim to know the science behind it, but it seems to me that something that small wouldnt really matter, and a lot of people have done it. i figure people cut circles in their chasis supporting mods so it should be okay haha. if anything, you can re weld it, just higher

adrian im trying not to cut into my shock tower for safety reasons. i dont want to lose the integrity of the shock tower. i know the simplest thing would be to cut out a bit of the shock tower to let the suspension travel through, but i just dont like that idea...apparently the issue is the new spc ball joints are just too damn thick and its causing more slap than a stock ball joint...
